    Automatic Railway Gate

    Uploaded by

    Kiran Raj
    This document describes an automatic railway gate system designed to prevent accidents at unmanned railway crossings. The system uses infrared transmitters and receivers placed on both sides of the railway crossing. When a train approaches, it blocks the infrared beam, activating the receiver. This triggers the gate to close within 5 seconds, allowing time for vehicles to clear the area. Once the train passes the second receiver on the other side, the gate opens again. Lights and a buzzer provide indications of the gate status. The system is designed to operate automatically based on train detection to open and close the gate safely without human intervention at unmanned crossings.

    Automatic Railway Gate

    Project code:- E24 Project Cost:- INR:- Rs. 7500/- USD:- 200$

    We read news papers very often about the railway accidents happening at un attanded railway
    gates. Present project is designed to avoid such accidents if emplemented in spirit.

    Automatic Railway Gate Presentation


    this project utilises two powerful ir transmitter and two receivers ,one pair of transmitter and
    receiver is fixed at up side (from the train comes) at a level higher than human beeing in exact
    alignment and similarly other pair is fixed at down side of the train direction sensor activation
    time is so adjusted by calculating the time taken at a certain speed to cross at least one
    compartment of standard minimum size of the indian railway. I have considered 5 seconds for
    this project sensors are fixed at 1000 miters on both sides of the gate we call fore side sensor pair
    for commong towards gate train and aft sidesensors for the train just crosse the gate when
    foreside receiver get activated, gate motor is turned on in one direction and gate is closed and
    stay closed till train crosses the gate and reaches aft side sensors when aftside receiver get
    activated motor turns in opposite direction and gate opens and motor stops . Buzzer will
    immidiately sound at the fore side receiver activation and gate will close after 5 seconds so
    giving time to drivers to clear gate area in order to avoid trapping between gate. And stop sound
    after the train has crossed. Two other indications are provided for station master to know the
    status of gate in case the gate is not closed due to any reason a red signalling light fixed well
    before gate is enough to alarm the train driver to stop the train . The project is simple
    emplementation and subject to further improvement. Based on atmel 89c51 microcontroller.
    Automatic Railway Gate Block Diagram

    Circuit explanation: we have used two pairs of strong ir transmitter and receiver pairs one for the
    up trains and other for down trains. Transmitters and receivers are connected across the railway
    track on both sides for up trains and down trains. Transmitters are driven by dc 3v power supply
    and contineusly transmits 36khz ir beam . Receiver for the down trains is connected on p3.3 and
    receiver for the up trains is connected on p3.5 .in normal case receiver output always remains
    high during no train condition.

    Open gate indication led is connected on p1.7


    Close gate indication led is connected on p1.6
    Blinking led is connected on p1.5 ,p1.4 & p1.3 port pins they will blink during train operation
    other wise stays off. Two are connected on the both side of the gate ,one of them can be
    connected in the station master,s office.
    Buzzer is connected on p1.0
    Rl1 is a relay to open gate connected on p1.1
    Rl2 is the relay to close gate connected on p1.2
    we assume that the gate is initially open. Two blink led’s are to be fixed on both side of the
    gate ,third led is for station master,s cabin.

    Complete circuit diagram of the rail gate


    When ever train comes from any side the ir receiver will sense the obstruction in beam and its
    out put will become low.we wait for five seconds to make sure that it is train only(this is the time
    required to cross atleast engine).
    P1.0 becomes high and buzzer starts
    10 seconds delay is given so that traffic dose not get trapped in side the gate.
    Gate starts closing slowly as p1.2 gives closing pulse to rl2 relay
    Open gate led connected to p1.7 is off and close gate led is on
    Blinking led remains blinking
    After 10 seconds buzzer is also off. But blinking remains
    After some time blinking also stops

    Now the microcontroller waits for the train to cross other side receiver, when its output becomes
    low , the gate will open
    Gate close led will become off and gate open led will glow.

    The process will repeate when the train comes from opposite directio
